Hey everyone, starting a log here to get the motivation and *hopefully* support and tips i need to get stronger and bigger .

Little info on myself.

My names Rob, im 18 (well, 19 next week) and iv been lifting for around 2.5 years. About 18 months of this time has been with the knowledge of a good diet and good form.
Iv found my upper body lifts are alot stronger than my lower, and i want to correct this and make my squats as strong (and then some) compared to my bench.

Im currently on a cut, i started 4 weeks ago at 91.5kg and am currently sitting between 88.5-89.3kg depending. My goal is to lose another inch of my stomach from 35" to 34" and then il be getting back into a long term clean bulk to hopefully reach around 100kg big and strong.

Welcome along Rob, you have great numbers for a 19 year old. Very strong pushing and pulling.

Squats will soon move up now you are here mate, try to get some vids and the guys on here will put you right.

Its all about the SQUATS here buddy

Looking forward to seeing how this pans out for you buddy

Thanks Steve, i think my progress is stopping as of late. I may have to put it on hold for the next week or so while i get the last of my partying for a LONG time out of my system over my birthday. Then the real progress begins!
